well, problem is that some patches simply cannot make it to offficial
sources nor our ebuilds. i have patch for netbeans that automatically
adds custom javadocs to getters and setters, final keywords to method
arguments etc. this really improves my efficiency when coding in
netbeans as it saves me a lot of keystrokes, but the scope of usability
of the patches is really small as i do not have time nor knowledge to
make this configurable through netbeans options and thus appliable at
the ebuild level or at the upstream source level. so from my point of
view epatch_user is a must unless i want to each time interfere emerge
of netbeans which i definitely do not want to.
